You've heard songs about the bright lights of the city And songs about the heroes of our land But there's one guy around who never lets us down The every day family man He works hard to pay the mortgage and the taxes And there's lots of things that he don't understands While we spend millions on the moon when the world may blow out soon The every day family man You won't read it in the headlines of the papers The things he does with his two calloused hands But every night when he comes home he's a king of his Rome The every day family man He won't be there when awards and all are given But he's close by when his neighbor needs a hand When he tells his kids goodnight the whole world for him is right The every day family man Yeah you won't read it in the headlines... The every day family man
